Journalists have a duty to tell the public that the president and his aides are seriously considering suspending habeas corpus *when it is happening* rather than saving it for a book rollout over a year later

Tremendously disappointed to see this. I heard nothing about any of this when I helped run her city council campaign in 2023 and would not have worked for her if I had. Eva should drop out of the CD1 race and resign.

“I’m from the government and I’m here to help” is almost literally what Mayor Mamdani is saying and it’s great actually
That old conservative line about the 9 most terrifying words in the English language?

I would fucking *love* to hear them, instead of some weird bank-shot tax policy or project that won't actually be complete for over a decade.

Nominating this guy would be an unmitigated disaster.

Janet Mills should drop out and clear the way for someone else to take him on. If she had the juice she wouldn’t be trailing by a wide margin.
Let’s talk about Graham Platner’s Big Lie, finally. In 2009, at the height of the Gulf War, the Marines barred him from active duty. Platner claims it was his forearm tattoos. But his one forbidden tattoo was the Nazi symbol on his chest. He knew - and he left the Marines rather than give it up. 1/

My request for national political media: please remember these are liars, and your job is to not carry their water for them but instead hold them accountable while also accurately and fairly informing the public.

Every stage of this process - his arrest, spending a year in jail, being dumped on the streets to die - would be deeply shameful in a society that actually valued human life.
The Washington Post's description of the bodycam video of his arrest last year, and the translation of Mr. Shah Alam's comments, is gutting. Remember, he was entirely blind in one eye and could only see three feet in the other, and he spoke virtually no English.

He spent a year in jail for this.

democrats should internalize that this is what their colleagues think of them and act accordingly
After pointing at Democrats and saying they are "crazy," Trump says, "We’re lucky we have a country, with people like this. Democrats are destroying our country, but we stopped it, just in the nick of time."
Just insanely destructive. Indefensible — but Republicans stood and clapped.

The Republican position now appears to be that you have a constitutional right to openly carry a gun in public, unless you do so while expressing a view that the government dislikes, in which case the secret police can shoot you to death on the spot.
Minneapolis police chief Brian O'Hara says that the victim was a 37-year-old white man and US citizen with no criminal record and that he was a legally permitted gun owner.

NewsNation is manufacturing consent. Why don't their producers look into actual footage of ICE's execution of the woman that's circulating on this site instead of airing the DHS's statement word-for-word?
ICE is accusing the woman who was shot to death by an ICE agent today in Minneapolis of "weaponizing her vehicle" and "attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them -- an act of domestic terrorism"

Listening to Utah GOP lawmakers scold us while claiming they avoided partisan data to draw new congressional maps is rich.

Somehow, we are to believe they were unaware of an effort FROM THEIR OWN PARTY to support the map that gave them the biggest electoral edge.

Guess which map they passed. 🤔

Finished my stream drawing maps and testing them against Brady Brammer's Bogus Bill. The first of these 3 maps, drawn without regard for partisan data, fails Brammer's tests. The following 2 maps, drawn to intentionally favor specific parties, pass them. VOD and map links below:

This bill's test passes the vast majority of gerrymanders (including the current one) and fails most fair maps. It is quite literally worse than having no test at all.

It's decision day for the redrawing of Utah's congressional maps.

Five maps have already been proposed by Utah's GOP majority.

Two more last-minute proposals could shake up the process ahead of today's vote.
